So you skipped the PS2? My advice would be to get the backwards compatible one, and play PS2 games for the next year or so. The PS2's library kicks the ass of just about anything on the market ever, and by the time you're done with the very best titles, the PS3 should have quite a few as well.

Playing the PS3 first comes with the risk of you getting used to HD graphics, which will make anything on the PS2 look horrible. That's one of the reasons I'm avoiding HD games until I can get one a HDTV of my own. =P
